So in principle this article this article seemed neat, but 3 1/2 of these are things that have already been discussed extensively in both fiction and non-fiction related to space travel. The only new ones to me are the tides and how non-human animals would react to living on other planets. The latter is interesting, but not for the reason the article mentioned.
I imagine that by the time we colonize other planets, we'll be able to solve the food problem by growing meat in a vat; after all, we started making vat meat after we started space exploration, and we're already making significant progress on the former but not the latter.
The thing that worries me is that this may make things difficult for companion animals, particularly the feathered companion animal I prefer. I'm sure that human nature being what it is, we'll bring cats, dogs, rabbits, and rodents into space and selectively breed them until they can handle stuff fine. We'd probably also bring along rhesus macaques for medical research.
But with space travel, faunal biodiversity on other planets may be restricted to a dozen species of mammals, mostly small rodents, and possibly insects.
There goes my dream of building a giant space zoo in the atmosphere of Saturn.
